Under A Dead Sun’s Gaze Lyrics by Your Hands Write History
The Pentateuch
2017
Under the old sun’s gaze, eyes crawling back and forth across the barren earth Beneath the hands of old graves, bones rolling back and forth in the quicksand Enslaved to our familiar ways, exhausted to death by the sequence The broken record always repeats With clenched fists beating the dead horse, greed tries to bring him back to life, but he has no strength left to lift the hooves that rotted away in time, and the broken bones that build his legs, no they can’t take another step Let alone compete with grace against all the rats of the human race Recycled images washing down the walls of our brains So stuck in our ways I can’t remember how my skin feels from the kiss of new rain So stuck in our ways Lock the children in the warmth of electronic cocoons We have to set them free The blind leading the blind in the darkest of catacombs We have to set them free Loaded gun take aim and pull the trigger Release my spirit with the clap of thunder The broken record always repeats, but who are you and who am I, to judge the days of their lives? I am the killer in the lineup, praying to God that I’m not recognized But I’d do anything to escape where my sin and I coincide Our filthy rags try to hide the holes we’ve been digging in our chests, but the bones of our brothers cry out from the beneath the blood in the quicksand Ignorance has no bliss for ignorance is blistering our spirit We are stuck in our graves So sick of the repetition, of hearing the broken record always repeat We are stuck in our graves Loaded gun take aim and pull the trigger Release my spirit with the clap of thunder There’s nothing new under the sun, but what if the sun was gone? What would we have left? My God, what would we have left? Our broken heart is stuck on repeat, but it’s time to break the pattern and set the record straight
